It is heartening to know that Indian Prime Minister Narendra Modi is coming to Saudi Arabia on a two-day state visit on April 2. As a matter of fact, the visit will further boost the strong relations between the two countries. Hopefully, it will ease out trade and energy issues.
Today, the world is witnessing terrorism at its highest peak, and hopefully the eminent leaders from both countries will figure out solutions to tackle the menace. India and Saudi Arabia have always enjoyed very good relations and naturally Modi’s visit will further boost the ties.
Saudi Arabia has the privilege of being the largest supplier of crude oil to India and is its fourth largest trade partner. There is no doubt that Saudi Arabia and India share very cordial relations, which has given an impetus to political, economic and security stability on both sides.
The Kingdom hosts over 2.9 million expatriates and their contributions to the country’s economic development is highly appreciated here. — Anees Lokhande, Jubail
